Riding the Pheonix Chapter 222: Night talk
Mingwei looked at Ning Xiu in front of him. ()
Judging from the music, skills, and master's rules, there must be some kind of relationship between the two families.
But this does not guarantee that Ning Xiu is a trustworthy person.
Thinking about her, she had an idea. She stared at Ning Xiu and slowly said the words: "I am a fortune teller."
Ning Xiu's brows moved slightly, as if he was a little confused: "Master of destiny?"
Mingwei asked: "Sir, haven't you heard of it?"
Ning Xiu shook his head.
Ming Wei was indescribably disappointed.
She also thought that if Ning Xiu was related to her master, or even his master, then she would have found a relative by saying these two words.
But no.
"Girl, where are you from?" Ning Xiu asked again.
Mingwei put away his disappointment and replied: "Master Tian Shuzi..."
"What else?"
Mingwei spread his hands with a bit of self-mockery: "Other than that, there seems to be nothing much to say. Like the noble sect, the master is a wandering person. If Mr. Ning hasn't heard of it, then I don’t know how to explain it either.”
Ning Xiu stared at her, as if thinking about the credibility of her words.
After a while, he looked at Yang Shu: "How long have you known each other?"
Yang Shu rolled his eyes: "You know her life experience, but you still don't know how we met?"
Seeing that he was fuming like a cat with fried fur, Ning Xiu could only turn around and continue to ask Mingwei: "Is your technique passed down by your master?"
Ming Wei answered calmly: "Yes."
"Can I ask how you practice your sonic skills? Some of the techniques you use, even I have just scratched the surface of."
Mingwei answered without blushing: "Master said that my talent is far beyond ordinary people, and I understand very quickly."
"..."
Mingwei said again: "You see that I don't have enough internal strength, so you should know that I don't have much time to practice martial arts."
Ning Xiu thought about it over and over, but couldn't find a flaw. It's a good thing that he didn't know that Miss Mingqi turned out to be an idiot, otherwise he wouldn't have let her off so lightly.
After listening to them for a long time, Yang Shu became impatient and knocked on the table: "Is that enough? You have finished asking, can you leave?"
Ning Xiu said calmly: "I came to see you today. I originally wanted to tell you that I found clues about your father, but it seems that you are not in a good mood..."
"What did you find out?" Yang Shu stood up suddenly, "Say it quickly!"
Ning Xiu asked: "Don't you tell me to get out?"
"..." Yang Shu said tentatively, "I'm sorry?"
Ming Wei finally saw the word "satisfied" on Ning Xiu's expressionless face, and then glanced at her.
"She knows."
Ning Xiu’s satisfaction was immediately replaced by a no, he frowned, and finally chose to say directly: "You said that your father went out of the city to invite your grandmother back, right?"
Yang Shu nodded.
"Here's the problem. I checked the manor and found that your grandmother was ill at the time, and your grandfather was with her. They didn't return to the capital until three days after the coup."
Yang Shu was stunned for a moment: "So?"
"I remember that your grandmother sent someone to protect the crown prince, right?"
Yang Shu nodded, this statement is the official version.
"Since your grandmother and grandfather are both in the manor, who is the most legitimate person to command the army for her?"
After hearing what he meant, Yang Shu's complexion turned gray.
Ning Xiu continued: "Your grandparents gave birth to two sons together. The eldest son is your uncle. Because he was born weak, he hardly practiced martial arts. Therefore, their hopes were placed on your father, who taught you strictly from an early age. You In that case, how likely is it that your father would fall off his horse and be seriously injured when he returned to the city?"
Yang Shu's lips trembled, he looked at him and said with difficulty: "You mean, my father went, went..."
"Going to save Prince Sihuai." Ning Xiu finished the rest of the words for him, "At that time, Prince Sihuai was demoted to a commoner and his family moved to Yizhou. Unexpectedly, they encountered bandits on the road and everyone was in trouble. What happened afterwards. , the King of Qin was convicted, and the so-called banditry was actually a disguise."
Compared to death by falling from a horse, this cause of death is obviously more reasonable and more honorable.
It’s just that Yang Shu really can’t understand——
"Prince Sihuai has been rehabilitated. If Mr. Yang dies because of this, there is nothing that cannot be said, right? Why does the eldest princess never mention the real cause of his death?"
Mingwei's words made Ning Xiu raise an eyebrow.
"This is indeed a bit strange."
After saying this, Ning Xiu looked at Yang Shu again: "Is it really just the cause of your father's death that you asked me to check? If you don't explain your intention clearly, I won't be able to grasp the key point, and I may not be able to find out what you want. Something."
Looking at Ning Xiu in front of him, Yang Shu realized that he had made a mistake.
In order to kill Ning Xiu, he deliberately threw such a thing. In the end, it gave him a chance to pry into his true thoughts.
What he wanted to investigate was, of course, not only the cause of his father's death, but also the mystery of his life experience that was implicated in his father's death. Does this matter have anything to do with the original King Zhao? Did his mother really have an affair with him? Whose child is he?
But he felt unhappy if he told Ning Xiu everything honestly...
Why should this inexplicable senior brother interfere with his affairs?
It sounded like he was admitting defeat...
Mingwei looked at him, then at Ning Xiu, and suddenly smiled: "Let me tell you."
"Hey!" Yang Shu was a little panicked.
Mingwei ignored it, looked at Ning Xiu and said: "What he wants to investigate is not only the death of Second Master Yang, but whether there are any old grudges in his family. The eldest princess and Marquis Boling were too far away It's sudden and he can't accept it."
Ning Xiu had no doubt: "So that's it. This is indeed a bit strange. Master and the eldest princess have been exchanging letters, and they made an appointment to send you here before she passes away..."
"Wait a minute!" Yang Shu heard something and shouted, "What do you mean send me there? What's going on?"
Ning Xiu shut up.
"Hey! Talk!"
Ning Xiu sighed: "Why do you think I came to the capital to find you? Speaking of which, Master and you have only been together for a few months, and it has been more than ten years. In fact, the eldest princess has been begging Master~IndoMTL. com~After she passed away, she protected you and retained her status as master and disciple."
"..."
"The eldest princess passed away suddenly without any words left. Master told me at that time that he would come to the capital to see how you were doing. But at that time, Master himself was not in good health and could not make the trip... ..." He looked at Yang Shu, his expressionless handsome face showing a rare softness, "You must have suffered."
Yang Shu twisted his head and hid himself in the shadows. It took him a long time to say: "What's the use of saying it now?"
Ning Xiu smiled faintly: "Master has gone now. He was thinking about you before he died, so I am here. Since you are suspicious of the cause of the eldest princess's death, I will help you investigate. If anything happens in the future, just tell me Tell me, my fellow disciples, there is nothing bad to say."
Ning Xiu is not a very affectionate person, but now she is following him everywhere. Yang Shu couldn't help but feel moved...
"Wait a minute!" He suddenly realized something, "You haven't told me yet, what does grandma mean by sending me there?"
I was almost knocked down by his tenderness and bypassed the topic!
